Bethesda’s New Content in Fallout 76
Falloutis one of Bethesda’s biggest franchises, and many fans were excited to see how the developer was going to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Rumors filled the Internet suggesting there was going to be a remake, the announcement of a new game, or a boatload of content in pre-existing games. Instead, Bethesda has largely stuck to celebrating the franchiseinside the controversialFallout 76.
Bethesda primarily broughtFallout 76players back toThe Pitt fromFallout 3. It was the focal point of a prominentFallout 3DLC, establishing a raider town built in the remains of Pittsburgh, and players had to fight their way through this town to decide its fate. It was a pretty fun DLC pack that fans enjoyed, so it’s great to see Bethesda re-introduce the town as an Expedition forFallout 76. However, besides a few cosmetic bundles and a next-gen update forFallout 4next year, this is pretty much the extent of Bethesda’s celebration.
Prime Gaming is Giving Fallout Fans a Lot More
Both Bethesda and Prime Gaming are celebratingthe 25th anniversary ofFallout, but Prime Gaming seems to have the better offerings. Though new content is always a plus, it comes in a game that has not been received super well byFalloutfans. Meanwhile, Amazon is offering entire games for members to claim. Luckily the celebrations are not ending here given Bethesda has plans forFallout 4content next year, and Amazon Prime Gaming may have a few additional tricks up its sleeve come December.
AmazonPrime Gamingsubscribers can claimFallout: New Vegasfor PC on November 1.
